Security forces set for coordinated counter-terror ops in J&K

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi:In a bid to eliminate terrorism from Jammu and Kashmir within a strict timeline, central security forces — including the Central Reserve Police Force and specialised “Quick Action Teams” of the Assam Rifles — are set to launch coordinated operations against militants holed up in forested and hilly areas of the Union Territory. “Multiple Quick Action Teams will conduct long-duration counter-terror operations, aiming to choke off terrorist movements and either capture or neutralise them,” said a senior CRPF official. The decision to intensify counter-terror activities follows Union home minister Amit Shah’s review of the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir earlier this month. Shah directed agencies to expedite operations and make the region terror-free “as quickly as possible.” In response, security forces have detailed an operational strategy to achieve these objectives.
